Feeling a bit sad today.
I learned yesterday that Topê had died a few days ago.
He was in Portugal for the Fest-i-Ball, then went to his home town,
went to sleep and never woke up. I think I'm still a bit in denial, as
he was so full of life. I loved his dance classes.
Each time I met him we remenbered a wonderful dance we had together in
Andanças a few years ago.
There was a Dazkarieh concert
and all the balls were so delayed that they only played at 5 am. I
think it was for their first album. A friend of mine was doing the
percussion and the singer was a friend of his, and we went together.
Their music had a some middle eastern influence at that time, and T.
is strictly folk dancing, but we started dancing together mixing both
styles: I was giving the oriental feel and he was doing greek and
israeli dance steps, and it worked out really well. We always said we
should have taped it.
His funeral will be tomorrow at 10 am in Sintra.
